Spinwave damping in the two-dimensional ferromagnetic XY model

The effect of damping of spinwaves in a two-dimensional classical ferromagnetic XY model is considered. The damping rate $\Gamma_{q}$ is calculated using the leading diagrams due to the quartic-order deviations from the harmonic spin Hamiltonian. The resulting four-dimensional integrals are evaluated by extending the techniques developed by Gilat and others for spectral density types of integrals. $\Gamma_{q}$ is included into the memory function formalism due to Reiter and Solander, and Menezes, to determine the dynamic structure function $S(q,\omega)$. For the infinite sized system, the memory function approach is found to give non-divergent spinwave peaks, and a smooth nonzero background intensity (``plateau'' or distributed intensity) for the whole range of frequencies below the spinwave peak. The background amplitude relative to the spinwave peak rises with temperature, and eventually becomes higher than the spinwave peak, where it appears as a central peak. For finite-sized systems, there are multiple sequences of weak peaks on both sides of the spinwave peaks whose number and positions depend on the system size and wavevector in integer units of $2\pi/L$. These dynamical finite size effects are explained in the memory function analysis as due to either spinwave difference processes below the spinwave peak or sum processes above the spinwave peak. These features are also found in classical Monte Carlo -- Spin-Dynamics simulations.Comment: 20 two-column page

Charged and Neutral Currents in a 3-3-1 Model with Right-Handed Neutrinos

The charged and the neutral currents are obtained by using a formal algebraical approach (developed and applied by the author) within the exact solution of a 3-3-1 gauge model with right-handed neutrinos. The entire Standard Model phenomenology is recovered without imposing any supplemental condition, but only by choosing an adecquate set of parameters from the very beginning of the calculus. A new and rich phenomenology regarding the particles and their currents occurs as well. The appealing feature of our results resides in the exact expressions of the currents which need not the adjustment usually due to the small mixing angle $\phi$ between neutral bosons $Z$ and $Z^{\prime}$ (like in the most of the papers in the literature treating the same issue). The required mixing was considered and aleready performed as an intermediate step by the solving method itself, since the physical eigenstates of those bosons were determined and then identified in the neutral currents.Comment: 14 pages, 1 Table, no figure

A Simple Realization of the Inverse Seesaw Mechanism

Differently from the canonical seesaw mechanism, which is grounded in grand unified theories, the inverse seesaw mechanism lacks a special framework that realizes it naturally. In this work we advocate that the 3-3-1 model with right-handed neutrinos has such an appropriate framework to accommodate the inverse seesaw mechanism. We also provide an explanation for the smallness of the $\mu$ parameter and estimate the branching ratio for the rare lepton flavor violation process $\mu \rightarrow e\gamma$.Comment: About 14pages, no figures, basis corrected, to appear at the PR

Cosmology of Brane-Bulk Models in Five Dimensions

We study the cosmology of models with four space and one time dimension where our universe is a 3-brane and report a few results which extend existing work in several directions. Assuming a stable fifth dimension, we obtain a solution for the metric, which does not depend on any arbitrary parameters. We discuss some implications of this result.Comment: Minor changes: brane energy conservation law and some typos corrected. All main results unchanged. 11 pages, no figures, LaTeX fil
